This was from a Rivals' article on Deangelo Willingham recruitment.
What will you remember most about the recruiting process?
"One story that made me mad was with Nebraska and Florida. Both of them were trying to sign Nevin McKenzie to play for them and they were using me against him. Coach Taylor called me and told me that they were trying to sign Nevin. Then I talked to Nevin. And those schools were telling him that I was a safety. No junior college guy wants to go somewhere to compete against another incoming junior college guy. I had to explain to him that I was a cornerback and not a safety. It was just another example of schools not telling the truth in the recruiting process."
